Help! Importing products.

[Guest]

Hi Guys,

 

Right , basicly i have had to create a completley new store to saught out some errors. I have set teh store up with all the mods i had before.

 

I have a backup of my old database but ONLY want to import the product, Catagory, Manufacture , Attributes info.

 

How on earth can I do this?? (Please say its possable! :( ) - If not I have no idea what im going to do as I have spent last few months putting up near enough 200 products etc. (I have all product images in exact same place on server as before so hopefully that wont be a prob)

 

Any advice appreaciated.

 

Thanks!

Will this work if:

 

a. I wasent using it before i backed up database and took old store ofline.

 

b. I have various mods installed like wholesale pricing (more quantity lower price etc)

 

Is there a way I can specificaly only import certain tables from a backup onto the current database? - with phpadmin?

only one way to find out . .. and the answer is yes. i wouldnt do it with phpmyadmin, as you are starting with an empty store, just let osCommerce assign the id's , if you use a backup you have to be exact with how the id;s from products and manufacturers are tied together.

How do I let oscommerce assign the ID's?? (Do you mean if i were to use easypopulate?)

 

Also what would you use other than phpmyadmin to import certain table info into the new database?

 

Thankyou for your help guys,
